The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the S edge of a small plateau with the valley of the W-E River Nanny immediately to the S and the stream is c. 90m to the S. The parish church of Kilsharvan (ME027-009----) is in a rectangular graveyard (dims c. 70m E-W; c. 40m N-S) defined by masonry walls (H c. 2m) on four sides. The walls have been heightened with brick courses (H c. 1m) at E, S, and W, but not at N where there is an E-W section of the old Julianstown to Duleek road.
